Amazing experience
I did not plan to do the Kiwi Experience originally, as I had nobody to travel with... but I am so glad I did! From the second you are on the bus you make friends, and the drivers ensure this even more so. It is an amazing and easy way to travel New Zealand, and I would recommend to anyone. The only issue is with rescheduling buses - it is advertised as a 'hop on, hop off' service, when in fact it is not this straight forward. Luckily, I had friends who had recently done the trip in my time frame, so had advised me where to spend extra days - so I prebooked all my buses. However, a lot of people I met end up on standby in a lot of places. This was my only issue. Everything else was seamless, and I loved it.

Amazing trip
So happy we travelled with Kiwi!! We had the best driver - and he rode the steelhorse to perfection. Furthermore, he helped create a great atmosphere for friendships to blossom

Overall got What I expected
I’m glad I travelled with KE cause I met great people and got to see a lot. Although I wish i had known before that it’s not possible to be as flexible and spontanious as you advertise it to be during Peak season. And a small request, turn the music down in the bus. It’s Really annoying sometimes

Fantastic Way to Meet People Travelling
The kiwi bus was a great way to meet fellow travellers going round New Zealand. Met some fantastic people that really made the trip worth it. The bus drivers were fantastic, always had good local knowledge and were happy to count themselves as part of the group. Only downside was if you didn’t have extra days, you sometimes missed out on seeing the destinations properly due to bus timings. In general, loved the pass and would recommend to any solo traveller.

Best Country in the World
It was the most convenient way of getting round the country with likeminded young individuals, all the people we met were great fun and will be friends for a longtime. a slight criticism was the trip felt like a school trip at time unless you get off the bus for longer than minimum time. Overall an excellent experience

Trip to Remember
Suggested by my Brother the Sheep dog pass is great if you have a shorter time in New Zealand you get to see all the main places. The Maori Night was something I will never forget seeing the Culture first hand. The south Island is beautiful our Driver Hamish was very professional, knowledgeable, funny and wanted to ensure we got the best out of time on the bus. never a dull moment. Lake Tekapo was breath taking as were several others stunning lakes we seen along the way.

Great time
Being able to cover so much yet see so much was brilliant, our bus driver - Ninja was an absolute star. Always helpful and inciteful and ready to have a good time with us when he saw appropriate. By far the best bus driver.
